I also have a 2011 GoLite Tumalo Pertex Storm Jacket in size large. I replaced the little foam cord locks on the hood with plastic line locks, and it weighs in at 10.86 ounces.

I just picked up the Kenai and have it at 282g (9.94oz) on my scale for size Large.

FYI. There was a separate thread about the various Golite fabrics - in this case the Pertex vs. Trinity.

For reference, the weather turned quickly here the other day - pouring rain, 48 deg and about 25mph winds and not a single drop inside the Kenai. I was mostly standing around at a soccer game, so can't comment on breathability. Very nice feature set on the Kenai too.
